Sign Language Recognition System for Deaf Patients: Protocol for a Systematic Review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Individuals with hearing impairments may face hindrances in health care assistance, which may significantly impact the prognosis and the incidence of complications and iatrogenic events. Therefore, the development of automatic communication systems to assist the interaction between this population and health care workers is paramount.

Objective

This study aims to systematically review the evidence on communication systems using human-computer interaction techniques developed for deaf people who communicate through sign language that are already in use or proposed for use in health care contexts and have been tested with human users or videos of human users.

Methods

A systematic review will be performed based on a literature search in MEDLINE, Web of Science
